If they are indeed upright people, as they pretend to be, then the more people are not directly witnessing what they do, the more significant the integrity is demonstrated through their modest compromises. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

- Thucydides (ancient Greek historian, philosopher and general, known as the father of the "science of history")

Even though the first 2,000 or so warriors were annihilated by the soldiers of the Tiger Legion, the subsequent landing warriors of the Essini tribe still rushed up to the river bank, and they were greeted by the swords in the hands of the soldiers of the Tiger Legion.

Bazel had the most elite 3,000 of the Tigers at the forefront of the riverbank, giving them a head-on blow to those who wanted to land, while he himself led the rest of his men to sit fifty meters away, watching the brutal battle ahead.

It's not that Bazel intends to let his elites play a role, but the limited space on the riverbank and beach is simply not enough to deploy the full strength of the Tigers, so Bazel has to use the strongest fighters to suppress the landing enemy.

With Bazel's Tigers rushing forward to suppress the enemy landing force, Gatus's archers returned to the Tigers' flank under Bai Feng's orders, where they continued to fire volleys at enemy river crossings that had not yet landed.

The sincere cooperation between the Tigers and the Cheetah Legion made the second round of river crossing attacks of the Aceni tribe suppressed on the river bank, even if they had the protection of the so-called goddess of war, Belonna, they could not change the situation in front of them at all.

The Aceni tribe did not last long in their destale, and soon they were routed by the combined blows of the warriors of the LTTE and the archers of the Cheetah Legion, and this time they managed to land on the west bank, leaving behind only nearly 5,000 corpses.

The iron-faced Queen Boudicca watched her army suffer heavy losses again, and the two defeats before and after had already caused nearly 10,000 casualties to the already small army of the Aceni tribe, which was one-fifth of the army under the command of Queen Boudicca!

If she didn't find a way to save the day, the outcome of the war would probably be known without any further fighting, but what could Queen Boudicca do to solve the problem at hand?

After noticing the change in Queen Boudicca's expression, what could General Eggers do but smile helplessly? Thirteen years ago, King Plasus and the Aceni tribe were not able to invade the West Bank, so how easy is it now?

All of Eggers' hopes for this battle were pinned on the 10,000 elite cavalry who had landed on the west bank, and if those 10,000 elite cavalry could reach the battlefield in time, it would not be impossible for the Aceni tribe to realize its desire to expand westward at the hands of Queen Boudicca.

Carefully calculate the time, with the speed of the cavalry's action, it will take at most twenty minutes, and the 10,000 elite cavalry should be able to rush to the battlefield, and considering the current situation of the morale of his own army after two successive defeats, Eggers made up his mind to go out in person!

Looking at the queen of Boudicca, who was raised by his own eyes, Eggers's heart was also full of relief, as the first person of the Aceni tribe to follow Plasus to fight against the horses, he witnessed the prosperity of the Aceni tribe, and also watched the Aceni tribe decline to this point.

Eggers, who is in his fifties this year, has experienced too many life and death, and has also lost too many friends and family on the battlefield.

Eggers, who had two wives and seven sons, all died in battle for the Acenian tribe, and from the time of Boudicca's birth, Eggers took care of Boudicca, who in his eyes was his own daughter.

This is the reason why Prasus entrusted Boudicca to Eggers before he died, and why Eggers unswervingly followed behind Boudicca, and to be able to see Boudicca's growth to this point, Eggers felt that he was enough.

"Boudicca, this third river-crossing attack will be launched by me personally, even the blessing of the goddess of war cannot make our soldiers bravely break through the enemy's west bank defense line, and if we continue to fight like this, it will only increase casualties, so let me fight in person!"

"General Eggers, our cavalry has not yet arrived at the battlefield, how can you, as the commander of our army, personally risk the danger?" Queen Boudicca refused Eggers' initiative without thinking about it, but whether she was unwilling or reluctant, then who could know?

"Boudicca, don't be stubborn this time, listen to me for once, if I don't fight myself, will our soldiers have the courage to continue fighting to the death?

Besides, with my strength being only one step away from the Juggernaut, do you think any of those enemy troops on the West Bank can hurt me? As long as I can lead my army to break through the enemy defense line on the West Bank and send more and more of our soldiers to the West Bank, we can win the war.

Think about it, how long has it been since our battles began, our cavalry will soon be on the battlefield, if we can't break through the enemy's defense line on the west bank, even if the cavalry comes, we can't rely on them alone to win, it's time to fight!"

In the face of Eggers's irrefutable reasons, Boudicca was still reluctant to let Eggers fight in person, and even she no longer used her identity as a queen to order Eggs, but only looked at Eggers with pleading eyes.

In the end, after giving Boudicca a reassuring expression, Eggers led the guards behind him to the forefront of the river crossing army, this time he wanted to use his life to open the way for Queen Boudicca's victory!

After seeing their commander personally fighting in battle, the morale of the Aceni tribe also rose sharply to a new peak, after all, Eggers is a veteran of the Aceni tribe for thirty years, he is deeply loved by all the warriors, and the warriors are willing to die for him!

Even Eggers did not say a word of encouragement to his warriors, and all the warriors who boarded the wooden ship again had already had the consciousness of dying generously, this was the prestige of Eggers among the Estheni tribe, and it was also the glory he deserved after thirty years of struggle!

Seeing that the enemy troops on the east bank began to board the boat to cross the river again, Bai Feng also knew that the critical moment of this battle had arrived, because he had just seen with his own eyes that the commander of the enemy army on the east bank had come to the forefront of the river-crossing army with his personal guards, and this attack should be the enemy's all-out attack!
